In an unprecedented, drastic, unanimous decision, the
administration of
Wookieepedia decided late last night,
March 31,
2008, to switch the entire site over to
Aurebesh, the in-universe language of
Star Wars.
As user and fellow administrator
Lord Hydronium puts it, "Because Wookieepedia is supposed to resemble an in-universe encyclopedia, it was decided that we should switch over to Aurebesh-which as you know is the alphabet all
Basic text in the Star Wars universe is written in-effective
April 1st, board time. The
main page was the first to be changed, and we hope to get around to the other pages within the week."
If you need to brush up on your Aurebesh, head on over to
our article—still, for the most part, in English. For users who wish to stick with English, you can still view the original version of our Main Page
here.
Be sure to check back tomorrow to see how the site continues to evolve!
